I was watching heaps of make up and room organisation DIYs and couldn’t help, but spend a couple of hours reorganising my make up stash, jewellery and bags. My room has been such a mess, and I was always finding excuses to push the task back to a later date! I couldn’t stand the mess in my room any longer.

So I went over to Kmart and bought a over-the-door jewellery holder.

and a bag organiser;

I love the way these storage ideas help me organise my room so easily and quickly! All I had to do, was pull out all my jewellery and bags – which was lying everywhere.. pick out the ones I wear the most, and throw them into the plastic holders! <3

I recommend these to every girl in the world.

Next thing I did was find little boxes and trays lying around the house to neatly sort out my make up and nail products. I originally had all my makeup in a little plastic four drawer organiser like this:

I placed my face products in the first drawer, mascara and eyeliners  in the second, eyeshadows in the third, and eyelashes in the last. However, i spent too long in the mornings trying to find the right items and ended up only using a small portion of my make up – because I wasn’t bothered trying to find the mascaras and eyeliners placed at the back of the plastic drawer.

Now, a bit of packing and organising, i turned my make up storage to look like this:

And I even labeled all my trays to make sure family members (particularly my sister) places things back into the right place!

Basically, I pulled out a few glass cups – the large one is my 21st birthday drinking wine glass! – and filled it with a bit of rice or sand. By doing this, my mascaras, eyeliners, brushes, etc., could stand up rather than falling all over the place.

For my lipsticks, I used a foam box that was sent to me when I purchased my circle contact lenses! The holes were slightly big for my lipsticks, but it was perfect enough to keep my lipsticks from falling. Now I can easily make a quick choice of which lipstick to use in the morning! :)

Then ofcourse, I went and organised my skin products, hair products, and nail products!

I placed my hair products (treatments, hair sprays, hair mousse, leave-in conditioners, heat protectant,..etc) on the top compartment, nail products into the second, and skin care products in the third.

My hair products were placed according to their height! haha! That way I could see all of my hair products and I’ll be able to use them all instead of leaving them lying around!

My nail polishes were sorted into “large nailpolishes” and “thin nailpolishes” – as labelled because I have alot of the thin nail art pen polishes and they always get in the way when I’m trying to find a single colour to paint my nails with! I have over a 100 nail polishes and ciolours were getting too difficult to find! I also put “nail clippers” into a cup because I found 5 nail clippers in my room! =X Everytime I need one, I can’t find them and so I steal one from the living room, and my mum probably goes and buys more because she thinks she lost them! And so I’ve accumulated five resulting to needing some storage option for them!
I also put all my deco-parts into a plastic box. This tray contains all my nail-art parts, including nail tips, acrylic powders, nail brushes, diamontes, crystals, rhinestones, nail stickers, nail stamps, etc. :)

My skincare products were placed in the order of what I use each day. I placed toners first, because I always use a toner right after washing my face in the mornings (or showering), then goes a foundation primer (because I pretty much go out every day and put on make up every day), then day cream & sunscreen.. and because my foundations were placed in my make up pile, I put eyeshadows next (because I couldn’t fit these on the make up table) and then night cream, and lastly make up removers! Night creams and make up removers should have been swapped around, but because I don’t like having difficult access to my night cream, I put it a little closer to me.

I’m lovin’ my room now! :)
